Case Study: QlikTech achieves rapid automated testing and faster, more reliable releases with SmartBear TestComplete

QlikTech International AB Uses TestComplete and Gets Results Not Possible with Automated Testing

QlikTech, founded in 1994 in Lund, Sweden, is the maker of QlikView, a fast-growing, UI-driven business intelligence tool used by thousands of customers worldwide. Because most functionality is delivered through a visually interactive interface (including complex chart painting), QlikTech’s rapid release cadence made manual regression testing slow, inconsistent and impractical—manual checks couldn’t reliably catch unexpected visual or functional regressions.

QlikTech adopted TestComplete to automate UI testing, building one main project with six test areas totaling about 1,000 test items. TestComplete’s image, text and dialog comparisons let QlikTech run full regression suites in hours instead of days, execute tests with every compile, increase coverage, find bugs earlier, and safely perform last‑minute fixes—now handling almost all pre-release testing.
